It is located deep to the larger gluteus maximus muscle, and overlies the gluteus minimus muscle. The innervation comes from the superior gluteal nerve, a branch of the sacral plexus (L4-S1). • The small gluteal muscles are considered as strong abductors and internal rotators of the thigh, at the hip joint. The anteriormost fibres of this muscle assist in flexion and interal/medial rotation of the thigh, while the posterior fibres function in extension and external/lateral rotation. The gluteus medius also plays an important role in the stabilization of the pelvis. • 0:31 Origin insertion • 1:00 Innervation • 1:10 Function • Want to test your knowledge on gluteus medius muscle?
